The FootJoy HydroKnit Rain Jacket delivers the comfort, stretch, and mid-layer feel you expect from a performance pullover — combined with the full waterproof protection of a dedicated rain jacket. Built around a specially engineered 2.5-layer lightweight stretch fabric and a 4-way stretch waterproof shell, this jacket moves with your swing rather than against it, making it one of the most versatile pieces of outerwear in the FootJoy HydroSeries range. Whether you're caught in a passing shower or battling a full-on downpour, the HydroKnit keeps you dry, comfortable, and ready to play.
The HydroKnit™ shell is a 100% waterproof construction engineered from a specially developed 2.5-layer lightweight stretch fabric. By bonding an inner protective layer directly to the outer knit face, FootJoy eliminates unnecessary bulk while maintaining a complete waterproof barrier. The result is one of the lightest waterproof garments ever produced by FJ — a jacket so unobtrusive that it mimics the feel and weight of a mid-layer fleece. The 15,000 mm water column pressure rating confirms that this jacket offers genuine, high-performance protection in all wet conditions, from morning mist to sustained heavy rain.
The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish is applied to the outer face of the HydroKnit fabric, causing water to bead on contact and shed immediately away from the shell surface. Crucially, this finish is entirely PFC-free, meaning it delivers maximum waterproof performance in even the toughest golf conditions without the use of environmentally harmful per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances. The DWR finish also helps the jacket retain its breathability by preventing the outer fabric from becoming saturated and clogged with moisture, so you stay comfortable throughout your round.
Unlike traditional waterproof jackets that restrict movement, the HydroKnit is built on a 4-way stretch waterproof fabric that expands and contracts in every direction. This engineering breakthrough means the jacket moves fluidly with your body during every phase of the golf swing — from the backswing to impact to follow-through — without tugging, binding, or limiting your range of motion. The combination of waterproof protection and true 4-way stretch places the HydroKnit in a category of its own: ultimate versatility regardless of the conditions.
Every seam on the HydroKnit jacket is fully sealed to close the one vulnerability that undermines many waterproof garments: the stitch holes left by needle and thread. FootJoy applies a waterproof tape over each seam, creating an unbroken moisture barrier across the entire jacket. Combined with the waterproof outer shell and DWR finish, the seam-sealed construction ensures there is literally no path for water to enter the garment — even in prolonged, heavy rainfall on the course.
The HydroKnit features a weatherproof chest pocket designed specifically for on-course use, giving you secure, easy access to your scorecard, glove, or wallet without exposing them to rain or wind. Two lower side pockets sit at a comfortable depth to accommodate the hands, providing warmth during cold rounds and a convenient place to store tees, ball markers, or other small accessories. All pocket openings are protected against water ingress, maintaining the jacket's overall waterproof integrity.
A full-length front zipper makes the HydroKnit easy to put on or remove quickly as conditions change mid-round, without compromising waterproof performance at the zip entry point. The adjustable waterproof cuffs at each sleeve end allow you to dial in a precise, secure fit at the wrist — eliminating gaps where water could run in from the sleeve. The cuffs are constructed from a waterproof self-fabric for a clean, streamlined finish that also protects the lower sleeve during rain or when retrieving your ball from the cup.
